LOVE LIES BLEEDING

Lovely specimen. Looks so healthy too. I think OH’s mum calls this ‘lady in the bath’..maybe it’s just her name for dicentra.

HI KATE AND FERNEVER NEVER HEARD OF LADY IN THE BATH....WONDER HOW IT GOT THAT NAME KATE.

Linda, it's Bleeding Heart Dicentra now known as Lamprocapnos!! When a flower is turned upside down it looks like the head, neck, shoulders and torso of a person in a bath. Well, if you use your imagination!

AND I JUST THOUGHT THEY WERE HEART SHAPES.....LOL

Shirley has nailed it there, I remember when I first saw it in OH’s parents garden - his mum demonstrated how it resembled “lady in the bath” :-D
You’ll have to give it a go, Linda!!!

I WENT DOWN THE GARDEN, PICKED A SINGLE FLOWER OFF GAVE IT A PULL, AND HAD A LAUGH.....

:-D

A great display they never let you down.

Always known as lady in the bath here too.....you have to pinch the bottom to get the full effect!

CERTAINLY MADE ME SMILE DD
